Mountain Lion Is Euthanized After Attacking a Child in Olympic National Park
A mountain lion that bit a 4-year-old child on a popular trail at Olympic National Park in Washington State was euthanized on Monday, park officials said. The child was treated at a hospital in Seattle and released on Monday, officials said. The child had been walking with family at the national park on Sunday when the mountain lion, which was wearing a tracking collar for research purposes, attacked, according to park officials. The child's identity and extent of their injuries were not released. Mountain lion attacks on humans are exceedingly rare, according to wildlife experts. There have only been a couple dozen fatal attacks in the U.S. and Canada in the last 150 years, according to data. Mountain lions are mostly solitary cats, tending to keep a low profile among people, which makes sightings of them unusual. The child was attacked while on a popular trail near the Victoria Overlook area on Hurricane Ridge in Olympic National Park, officials said. Rangers were notified of the attack about 3:15 p.m. on Sunday, and paramedics and park staff quickly transferred the child by an air ambulance to Harborview Medical Center in Seattle. Rangers, and later a canine team, searched for the animal and found it on Sunday. It was not euthanized until Monday morning, park officials said. Mountain lions are known by more than 40 common names, including puma, cougar, panther, red tiger and catamount. They are most active at dusk and dawn, and their favorite prey are deer and elk. No details were released about the animal, or its contribution to research. In 2022, another collared mountain lion, known as P-22, was euthanized in Los Angeles after wildlife officials determined that he had serious health issues. That one had become a celebrity in the city, after helping to inspire the construction of a wildlife crossing bridge on the 101 Freeway. P-22 lived most of his life in Griffith Park and gained a social media following, with more than 10,000 followers on Instagram. But despite the crossing bridge, he was hit by a car in 2022. Soon afterward, he attacked two dogs, one of which died. Olympic National Park, which covers more than 920,000 acres on a thumb of land known as the Olympic Peninsula, is one of the largest, most remote, and least-developed protected areas in the United States.

Create Account Richard Tillman, 44, of San Jose was arrested after the car rammed into the office located in a strip mall around 3 a.m. Sunday, causing the building to go up in flames, San Jose police said. No injuries were reported. The incident is being investigated as a 'potentially intentional act,' U.S. Postal Inspector Michael Martel said in an email Monday. There was no information about a possible motive. About 50 firefighters took about 90 minutes to knock down the flames at the Almaden Valley Station Post Office south of downtown. Photos posted online by the fire department showed a charred vehicle inside the heavily damaged one-storey building. Tillman was booked on suspicion of arson. He was held in lieu of $60,000 bail and was scheduled to appear in court on Wednesday, according to online custody records. A phone number could not be located for Tillman. Messages were sent to the Santa Clara County District Attorney asking if he has an attorney. This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below. His brother Kevin Tillman shared a statement from the family who said they were relieved no one was hurt. 'To be clear, it's no secret that Richard has been battling severe mental-health issues for many years,' the family said. 'He has been livestreaming, what I'll call, his altered self on social media for anyone to witness. Unfortunately, securing the proper care and support for him has proven incredibly difficult — or rather, impossible. As a result, none of this is as shocking as it should be.' The family said they had limited information but were in communication with local authorities. Pat Tillman left the Arizona Cardinals to join the military after 9/11 and was killed in Afghanistan in 2004 at age 27. His family is from the San Jose area. Kevin Tillman also left his Major League Baseball career with the Anaheim Angels to serve in the military. Richard Tillman was largely out of the public eye in the years following his brother's death. Nearly 2 million people live in the metropolitan area of San Jose, about 80 km south of downtown San Francisco. Celebrity Canada Columnists Canada Toronto & GTA

Shiloh Nouvel Jolie and her rumored girlfriend, Keoni Rose, were spotted embracing in a car together on Saturday in California. The daughter of and Brad Pitt was seen wearing a red hoodie as she stepped out with her rumored dancer partner. It comes after an insider told that Shiloh and Keoni have 'temporarily moved in [together]'. Exclusive photos obtained by us confirmed the move, showing the pair hugging outside their shared LA condo. Keoni will soon head to Washington State to perform in a preview of Veronica Mendonca's dance production pAges at STG's Kerry Hall at Cornish College of the Arts in Seattle this Saturday. It's a fundraiser for Keoni and the cast to debut pAges at theSpaceUK during the Edinburgh Festival Fringe in Scotland from August 18-23. The pair were first photographed May 26 shopping together at Isabel Marant - two days after Shiloh choreographed a 'sometimes steamy number' for Keoni and Tako Suzuki at the LA launch of the French designer's capsule collection with Net-A-Porter. It was that Luella-accompanied performance at Oliver House where Shiloh debuted her professional name 'Shi' a little over a year after dropping her surname Pitt following her estrangement from her famous 61-year-old father. 'It brings a tear to the eye, yeah,' Brad gushed of 'beautiful' Shiloh to ET back in 2022. 'I don't know where she got it from. I'm Mr Two-Left-Feet here. I love when they find their own way, find things they are interested in and flourish.'
